Great salespeople don't just sell products. They sell ideas. They solve problems. They create opportunities.

.Paul Magazine, we believe great salespeople sell themselves before they sell our products.

Mpls.

St.Paul Magazine is one of Minnesota's most recognized local media brands. But we're much more than a magazine.

We help businesses grow through an integrated portfolio of trusted media and marketing solutions, including:

• Award-winning print publications
• Marketing services
• Digital advertising
• Branded content
• Social media
• Video
• Live events
• Email marketing
• Custom marketing programs
• First‑party audience solutions

Every recommendation we make is built around one question: "What does this client need to accomplish?" Then we build the right solution.

• Develop new business opportunities through strategic prospecting, networking, referrals, and relationship building.
• Meet with business owners and marketing leaders to understand their business, challenges, and growth objectives.
• Design integrated marketing strategies that combine print, digital, branded content, events, social media, video, and custom solutions.
• Present ideas that solve business problems instead of simply selling advertising.
• Build lasting partnerships by delivering measurable results and exceptional client experiences.
• Manage an active sales pipeline and consistently exceed revenue goals.
• Collaborate with award‑winning creative, editorial, digital, marketing, and events teams to bring ideas to life.
• Stay curious about marketing trends, consumer behavior, and new ways to help clients succeed.

Our most successful consultants tend to be people who:

• Love to win.
• Don’t wait for opportunities. They create them.
• Are comfortable picking up the phone and asking for meetings.
• Ask great questions before presenting solutions.
• See rejection as part of success.
• Want their income to reflect their performance.

Media sales experience is helpful, but it isn’t required.

If you’ve succeeded in consultative sales, business development, marketing, technology, SaaS, financial services, staffing, healthcare, or another relationship‑driven industry, we’d love to hear from you.

• Build relationships with influential business leaders across the Twin Cities.
• Sell integrated marketing solutions instead of one‑size‑fits‑all products.
• Work alongside award‑winning editorial, creative, digital, and events teams.
• Bring your own ideas and help shape the future of a growing media company.
• Receive ongoing coaching, collaboration, and professional development.
• Build a career with significant income potential and room to grow.

This is a performance‑driven sales position. Success comes from building relationships, prospecting consistently, creating opportunities, and helping clients grow.

Expected first‑year earnings typically range from $75,000 to $125,000, including base salary and commission. Our commission plan rewards performance with uncapped earning potential.

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off and holidays
• Professional development opportunities
• Flexible work environment
• Collaborative and supportive team culture

Candidates should be residents of Minnesota.
